Top Disco Music Quotes

Disco Music Quotes By Giorgio Moroder

Disco is music for dancing, and people will always want to dance. — Giorgio Moroder

Disco Music Quotes By Hans-Peter Lindstrom

I don't like to put tags on my music. I leave that to others. Seems like some people see me as the founder of "space disco", although that's a bit weird since there were lots of music from the late 70s and early 80s that easily fits into this genre. I can understand why we need genres, but I don't feel comfortable using any on my own music. — Hans-Peter Lindstrom

Disco Music Quotes By Gordon Korman

He watched in awe as she stacked up an enormous armload of music. "There," she finished, slapping Frank Zappa's Greatest Hits on top of the pile. "That should do for a start."
"You are a music lover," said the wide-eyed cashier.
"No, I'm a kleptomaniac." And she dashed out the door.
He was so utterly shocked that it took him a moment to run after her.
With a meaningful nod in the direction of the astounded Cahills, she barreled down the cobblestone street with her load.
"Fermati!" shouted the cashier, scrambling in breathless pursuit.
Nellie let a few CDs drop and watched with satisfaction over her shoulder as the clerk stopped to pick them up. The trick would be to keep the chase going just long enough for Amy and Dan to search Disco Volante.
Yikes, she reflected suddenly, I'm starting to think like a Cahill ...
And if she was nuts enough to hang around this family, it was only going to get worse. — Gordon Korman

Disco Music Quotes By Don Cornelius

There was no match for Barry White. His music is just going to live forever. It's not limited to disco or soul or hip-hop or anything. — Don Cornelius

Disco Music Quotes By Brendon Urie

There's a little tagline in there that I throw out to our fans, I like to call them my sinners, and I'm a fellow sinner, and so I think that's a special little throw-out to them. — Brendon Urie

Disco Music Quotes By J.M. Hushour

(On disco) I don't consider that a genre as much as a level of hell. — J.M. Hushour

But before any of them, he was simply a dancer doing the James Brown. — R.J. Smith

Disco Music Quotes By Andy Weir

The data transfer rate just isn't good enough for the size of music files, even in compressed formats. So your request for "Anything, oh God, ANYTHING but Disco" is denied. Enjoy your boogie fever. Also, — Andy Weir

Disco Music Quotes By Will.i.am

Disco is the first technology music. And what I mean is that 'disco' music is named after discs, because when technology grew to where they didn't need a band in the clubs, the DJ played it on a disc. — Will.i.am

Disco Music Quotes By Will.i.am

The music industry isn't converging toward dance music. Dance music is dance music. It's been around since disco - and way before disco. But there's different versions of dance music. — Will.i.am

Disco Music Quotes By Peter Tork

Pop music, disco music, and heavy metal music is about shutting out the tensions of life, putting it away. — Peter Tork

Disco Music Quotes By Summer Glau

Sometimes when I get home after a long day, I'll turn on music - I love Latin, disco, and pop - and do my own workout, even if it's a short one. Know a good song to work out to? 'I Will Survive.' — Summer Glau

Disco Music Quotes By Jeff Baxter

I think the idea of crossing over is the ultimate expression of being ... Maybe it's time to play rock and roll on disco ... maybe it's time to play heavy metal on R & B, things like that. Certainly culminating on things like Aerosmith doing the rap thing with Run DMC, which if they hadn't done that, or if Eddie hadn't played with Michael Jackson, or if I hadn't done "Hot Stuff", people would have said "You can't do that" — Jeff Baxter

Disco Music Quotes By Jonathan Lethem

Laughing at "Rapper's Delight"'s no revenge, and anyway it wasn't your idea, and anyway it's funny. Dean Street's another story, a realm of knowledge unapplicable here.
You've just about finished leaving Dean Street, and Aeroman, behind.
If this means avoiding the one who protected your ass all through junior high, the one you once ached to emulate, the one whose orbit you were happy just to swing in - if it means leaving the million-dollar kid's regular phone messages in Abraham's precise handwriting unreturned - that's a small price to pay for growing up, isn't it?
This ain't no party, this ain't no disco, this ain't no foolin' around.
It's the end, the end of the seventies. — Jonathan Lethem

Disco Music Quotes By Chuck D

As a late teenager, the punk movement pushed me further. In particular, the Clash, which happened to leak through the time of disco, showed me that there was this cross-cultural sound that could cut across genres and audiences. Like punk was to disco, rap music was a rebellion against R&B, which had adopted disco and made it worse. — Chuck D

Disco Music Quotes By Michael Jackson

I hate labels because it should be just music. I don't see anything wrong with disco. Call it anything. It's music. — Michael Jackson

Disco Music Quotes By Chris Kraus

There were some low moments out there on the road tonight - abandonment and what's the point? - but then I pulled in a radio station from Albuquerque playing historical rap and breakdance circa 1982. Kurtis Blow and disco synthesizers made me feel like I could drive all night. — Chris Kraus

Disco Music Quotes By Tommy Lee

I've always gravitated towards the beats, obviously. And when I was growing up, I always loved funk music or even - dare I say it - disco. — Tommy Lee

Disco Music Quotes By Rob Sheffield

When I started out as a music journalist, at the end of the 1980s, it was generally assumed that we were living through the lamest music era the world would ever see. But those were also the years when hip-hop exploded, beatbox disco soared, indie rock took off, and new wave invented a language of teen angst. — Rob Sheffield

Disco Music Quotes By David Mitchell

Disco's are tricky. You look a total wally if you dance too early but after one crucial song tips the disco over, you look a sad saddo if you don't. — David Mitchell

Disco Music Quotes By Candace Bushnell

A glittering disco ball spins from the ceiling, but the music is something I've never heard, discordant and haunting and insistent, the kind of music that demands you dance. — Candace Bushnell

Disco Music Quotes By David Guetta

There was a movement called 'disco sucks', it was a shame to like disco, but then there was no music to dance to, so some DJs started to use old disco records, but the B-sides and the acapellas, and we began producing beats with drum machines. — David Guetta

Disco Music Quotes By Elaine Stritch

New York is like a disco, but without the music — Elaine Stritch

Disco Music Quotes By Donna Summer

God had to create disco music so I could be born and be successful. — Donna Summer

Disco Music Quotes By David Foster Wallace

I have pointed rhythmically at the ceiling to the two-four beat of the same disco music I hated pointing at the ceiling to in 1977. — David Foster Wallace

Disco Music Quotes By Adam Haslett

Kind of gay? I wanted to say. Do you have any notion how many homosexuals sweated their ass off on the dance floor to make this soaring bit of derivative trash possible? How many died of AIDS, OD'd, or went broke on the way to that girl from Texas cutting a deal... — Adam Haslett

Disco Music Quotes By Tom Scholz

When I first started recording, I was told by all of the experts in the business that the kind of music that I was doing was never going to sell. That disco was the coming thing and it was going to take over and what I was interested in was a minor sideline. — Tom Scholz

Disco Music Quotes By Mojo Nixon

Rave music sounds like an electronic disco version of '30s Universal monster movies. — Mojo Nixon

Disco Music Quotes By Diana DeGarmo

I think one of my highpoints was definitely well, everything started turning around on Barry Manilow week. I had so much fun on disco week, love disco music. I think I picked some songs that really worked for me and people really enjoyed them. I loved doing the Donna Summers song and she was the guest judge, and she was the guest judge and I felt honored. She said she loved the song and said I made it my own. — Diana DeGarmo

Disco Music Quotes By Jeff Baxter

I think music changed when Bruce Springstee came on the scene. I think if it wasn't for Bruce Springstee, music would have gone in a very scary direction. We may have gotten to where disco music ruled - and I would've had to quit. — Jeff Baxter

Disco Music Quotes By George Clinton

Disco is funky when you take one record at a time. It's just that they narrowed it down to one beat to try to corner the market on a particular music. And when you do that with rhythm - talk about something that will get on your nerves. Try to make love with one stroke. Somebody will tell you to fax it in. — George Clinton

Disco Music Quotes By Dionne Warwick

During the time that my recording career seemed to be in a slump a music called disco came on the scene and literally took over radio stations as well as having radio stations created to play it which sort of negated my music as well as that of some of my peers. — Dionne Warwick

Disco Music Quotes By Jay Kay

When I listen to Radio 1 and hear five different tracks in a row using old disco samples, well that's plagiarism, that's taking other people's music. — Jay Kay

Disco Music Quotes By Quentin Crisp

The worst part of being gay in the twentieth century is all that damn disco music to which one has to listen. — Quentin Crisp

Disco Music Quotes By Steven Morrissey

Burn down the disco Hang the blessed D.J. Because the music that they constantly play It says nothing to me about my life — Steven Morrissey

Disco Music Quotes By Michael Nava

The sidewalks were jammed and the crowds drifted slowly past bars from which disco music blared and where men sat on barstools looking out the windows. The air smelled of beer and sweat and amyl nitrate. At bus benches and on strips of grass in front of buildings, men sat, stripped of their shirts, sunbathing and watching the flow of pedestrians through mirrored sunglasses. Approaching the bar where I was meeting Hugh, I smelled marijuana, turned my head and saw a couple of kids sharing a joint as they manned a voter registration table for one of the gay political clubs. I stepped into the bar expecting to find more of the carnival but it was nearly empty. The solitary bartender wiped the counter pensively. — Michael Nava

Disco Music Quotes By Rick Riordan

Different elevator music was playing since my last visit-that old disco song "Stayin' Alive." A terrifying image flashed through my mind of Apollo in bell-bottom pants and a slinky silk shirt. — Rick Riordan

Disco Music Quotes By Todd Rundgren

Every once in a while, we have some sort of movement in music that everyone suddenly wants to work in, like grunge or rap or disco or some other musical phase, and then suddenly, that'll be the thing to do. — Todd Rundgren

Disco Music Quotes By Daniel Clowes

I was thinking the other day that there will never be another form of music that everybody has to respond to - like disco. — Daniel Clowes

Disco Music Quotes By Jade Jagger

I can't help but love all music, but nu disco is my new favorite. — Jade Jagger

Disco Music Quotes By Anton Du Beke

I hated most music in the 1970s, especially disco, but Bowie was edgier. — Anton Du Beke

Disco Music Quotes By Andy Weir

Mark, some answers to your earlier questions:
No, we will not tell our Botany Team to "Go fuck themselves."
[...]
The data transfer rate just isn't enough for the size of music files, even in compressed formats. So your request for "Anything, oh god, ANYTHING but Disco" is denied. Enjoy your boogie fever. — Andy Weir

Disco Music Quotes By T. Afsin Ilgar

Love is an art, Berk. Just like painting or music. Some painters draw mere lines, scratches on the canvas and call them art; some paint stars studded skies like van Gogh; or Chopin's music conquers the hearts of millions while the execrable disco music blaring out of the open windows of a car have also their audience. Some describe love in high-flown flowery language and you identify yourself with the hero and the heroine and feel yourself in the seventh heaven while some give such a lamentable picture of it that you almost curse it! — T. Afsin Ilgar

Disco Music Quotes By Liberty Ross

I have four older siblings and one younger, and all three of my brothers are in the music industry. My dad was really involved in music, too, with the disco, and he also started Radio Caroline and was the one who invented pirate radio, if you like, off on a coast in England on a boat. — Liberty Ross

Disco Music Quotes By Martha Reeves

Disco music in the '70s was just a call to go wild and party and dance with no thought or conscience or regard for tomorrow. — Martha Reeves

Disco Music Quotes By Cynthia Heimel

Contrary to popular cable TV-induced opinion, aerobics have nothing to do with squeezing our body into hideous shiny Spandex, grinning like a deranged orangutan, and doing cretinous steps to debauched disco music. — Cynthia Heimel

Disco Music Quotes By Grandmaster Flash

Disco was brand new then and there were a few jocks that had monstrous sound systems but they wouldn't dare play this kind of music. They would never play a record where only two minutes of the song was all it was worth. They wouldn't buy those types of records. — Grandmaster Flash
